It’s a waste of money.If the work is approved,once it’s all done,the same problems will still exist.In order for those to change,a project with much more significant impact would have to take place.This is just being used as a foot in the door by CalTrans as more work will likely be pushed south of the grove where it is more dangerous for trucks to pass.

But the opposition to it is a prime example of the absolute stupidity of the “shovel ready'””stimulus” bill that was passed (without being read) by our asinine legislature. You can promise trillions of dollars in spending like this, on projects that were already slated, and the will be delayed for YEARS by the likes of a Jeff Muskrat. There’ll be – and is no – benefit, immediate or otherwise. Every single one will be met with resistance from the naysayers. That’s why things don’t get done and why they cost so much.
